- W590441330 abstract "The conflict in Syria, which has lasted since 2011, has become the most significant test of theefficiency of Turkey’s foreign policy and the biggest challenge to Turkey’s security in recentdecades. The lack of a clear prospect of an end to the war does not allow us to come to a finalconclusion regarding the Syrian civil war’s importance for Turkey. However, it can be saidtoday that with the exception of the initial phase of the conflict, Ankara’s influence over thecourse of events in Syria has been limited, and the war itself is evolving in a direction that isunfavourable for Turkey: the hostile regime of Bashar al-Assad is still in power, the oppositionhas proved to be an unreliable or even a dangerous ally, and in northern Syria militant jihadistgroups and Kurds are gaining importance. It is also quite unlikely that the West will takeany greater responsibility for stabilising the situation in the region.In response to such an unfortunate situation, and out of fear of risking deeper involvement inthe conflict, during the past year Turkey’s policy towards Syria has been restrained, reactiveand focused mainly on defending Turkey’s territory. However, this policy offers no securityguarantees and does not prevent the country’s regional position from weakening, especiallyin the context of the reinforcement of the jihadist militants and the Kurdish autonomy innorthern Syria. The arguments for Turkey continuing its defensive policy are strong: the countryfears the possible results of an open confrontation with Assad’s forces; most probably itcould not count on support for such actions from within its own society or its Western allies.It also does not have enough acceptance within the anti-Assad opposition circles. On theother hand, though, the risk of uncontrolled development of events is still present; the riskof confrontations with armed jihadist militants is growing; and the potential operation ofTurkish forces, either against the jihadists or against Assad’s army, could be considered asa method of diverting attention from the political problems with which the AKP governmenthas been struggling at home." @default.
